A man shot early Tuesday died later the same morning of his wounds, the Cook County medical examiner’s office determined Wednesday.

Demetrius R. Bottom, 49, was shot in the 8000 block of South Maryland Avenue and was pronounced dead at 4:31 a.m. Tuesday, according to the medical examiner’s office. An autopsy Wednesday showed Bottom died from multiple gunshot wounds, according to the office.

Police News Affairs had not been notified of the victim’s death by Wednesday night, more than 36 hours after he was pronounced dead.

The man was shot about 1:05 a.m., and police found him lying on the ground with a gunshot wound to the side, said Officer Veejay Zala, a police spokesman. He was uncooperative with investigators, police said.

The man was outside when he was approached by a man or boy, and the two got into a fight that ended with the other person taking out a gun and shooting the victim, Zala said.

The victim was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he was initially listed in serious condition, according to police.
